• 30 to 98 wt % of an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer (a), and
• 70 to 2 wt % of a propylene resin composition (P) (wherein the total of the component (a) and the component (P) is 100 wt %), the propylene resin composition comprising 60 to 0 wt % of a propylene polymer (b) satisfying both the following requirements (b-1) and (b-2), and 40 to 100 wt % of a propylene polymer (c) satisfying the following requirements (c-1) and (c-2) (wherein the total of the component (b) and the component (c) is 100 wt %);
• (b-1) the melting point Tm (b) according to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is 120 to 170° C.;
• (b-2) the melt flow rate (MFR) (230° C., 2.16 kg load) is 0.1 to 500 g/10 min;
• (c-1) the polymer shows a melting point Tm (c) of less than 120° C. or shows no melting points according to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC);
• (c-2) the melt flow rate (MFR) (230° C., 2.16 kg load) is 0.1 to 500 g/10 min.
